[Asus Padfone X and S] shifuimam:
I've found a variety of posts throughout XDA regarding changing or adding LTE bands to a phone via Qualcomm's software. I'm wondering if any of these are an option with tethered CWM on the PadFone X Mini.

Has anyone tried this? A few things I've found:

All-in-one tool, flashed in recovery

Possible way to enable USB modem mode

Changing configuration of Qualcomm modem to enable additional bands

I'm wondering if the all-in-one tool will do it. It seems like with root and recovery (even tethered), we shouldn't necessarily need to figure out where the diagnostic menu is to enable USB modem mode...

ETA:

So I did a little more poking around, and it looks like AT&T and T-Mobile use the same LTE bands/frequencies, so the issue may be the radio's baseband firmware. If this is the case, has anyone tried alternative baseband firmware for the radio?

When you are choosing beetween resident and guest mode, press tab with the wanted mode selected. At the end of the line that appears, add DPI=(desired dpi) and UVESA_MODE=(your resolution). You can change the DPI around until you are comfortable.
[Remix OS for PC] al404:
if i press the tab button it doesn't happen anything, if i press letters i enter the mode that are written the lower right corner
[Remix OS for PC] biorap:
You should press tab button at the beginning (

Guest Mode

or

Resident Mode

selection). After pressing tab, you should add DPI=150 and uvesa_mode=1366x768 at the end of linux line. ( Of course you should try again and again which DPI you feel comfortable)
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] MeltdownSpectre:
Just purchased a second hand HTC One (M8).

Turned out to be a CDMA variant, bootloader shows M8_WHL, which is the Sprint variant.

When I got the device, it had a locked bootloader but was S-OFF with SuperCID (11111111) and running stock ROM.

I rooted it, by unlocking the bootloader and flashing TWRP.

After this, I handed it over to my friend, whom I forgot to tell that it was a CDMA variant, so he treated it as a GSM one.

He didn't notice the M8_WHL part and changed the MID to 0P6B1000 and left the CID as is, downloaded 6.12.401.1 (which is the MM ROM for International M8), flashed the RUU.zip and tried to boot the phone.

Phone will not boot now, if one types the reboot command, it just goes back to Bootloader.

TWRP can not be used correctly since it shows Internal Storage as 0MB, which I think is a bad sign.

So he gave it back to me, I downloaded a Sprint RUU (exe) from the HTC website, didn't detect the device so didn't flash it. I tried copying the ROM.zip from the exe RUU but it turned out to be corrupt.

I downloaded the RUU zip from XDA, also turned out to be corrupt, when attempting to flash it through htc_fastboot, it shows an error:

"remote project does not have sa key to decrypt ROM"

Is the phone bricked, or is there any way I can get it going again?

Please help!

Thanks!

[GUIDE] Disable "logd" process - NO MORE BATTERY DRAIN [ALL ROMs] [ROOT req]

Hi all,

I have the G4 (H815) for over 6 months and always (both Lollipop and Marshmallow) I have been suffering from a tremendous battery drain.

After a lot of research I discovered that the reason (the main reason) of my battery drain is due to "logd" process that normally burned over 15% (or more) for each charge cycle (checked with Better Battery Stats).

Obviously I tried everything, full wipe, change ROM but that process was always there to suck battery them. :confused:

I do not know why the process is so high but I know that deactivating it the problem is automatically solved ;)

So finally I found a way to eliminate the underlying problem permanently by disabling the logd process from TWRP.

if you also have this problem, follow this simple guide and you will solve the problem permanently.

After disabling "logd" process the only evidence it is that logcat no longer works but for many I do not think it's a problem.

Anyway you can always go back and put everything back as it was.

[Before Start]

I suggest you to make a FULL BACKUP before you follow this guide.

I am not responsible if your brick your phone.

[Prerequisites]

Root

TWRP

[Step by step Guide]

Reboot phone into Recovery (TWRP) and click "Mount"

Check System and then press "back"

Click "Advanced"

Click "File Manager"

Choose the "system" folder

Choose "bin" folder

Choose "logd" file and press "Select"

Click "Rename files"

Add ".bak" and then press "Go"

Swype right to confirm

Press Home button

Restart => System

Now, "logd" process is permanently disabled and should not appear between processes (verified with Better Battery Stats).

To put everything back as it was before, just rename back "logd.bak" file to "logd" by following the same procedure above.

See the attached screen for a visual guide.

I also attach my battery stats AFTER disabling the "logd" process.

Before deactivating I did not reach the 2 hours of SOT. Now they are 4 or more with 20hrs of standby

All without Amplify or other battery savers :D

Let me know if this works for you.

EDIT:

Some users reported that renaming \system\bin\logd to \system\bin\logd.bak using a root explorer and then reboot .. works too.

Ty.

If you find this guide useful ... press "Thank you". :good:

You can run TWRP without installing it while you are in Fastboot mode. Check the bottom of the OP on this link http://xdaforums.com/g4/help/lgup-install-kdz-mm-lp-t3249803. You should be able to rename logd this was as Root is not an issue - it may be necessary to mount the relevent folder as read/write but it should work.

Open any terminal app.
